4/17/26 INTRODUCTION ~ Welcome Brigitte Barkdot to our rescue family!
You would think Brigitte Barkdot had it all: a family of her own, a place to call home and probably plenty of toys to keep her 14-month-old mind and body entertained.
But this week, that life came to an abrupt halt.
She hopped into the car thinking it was just another ride. Another outing. Another normal day. But this ride was different.
Her owners no longer wanted her, so they handed her off to someone they believed would love her. Instead, that person walked her into a hair salon, kennel in hand… and left her there.
Just like that.
In just a few days, Brigitte Barkdot was passed from one set of hands to another… discarded, confused and unsure of what she did wrong.
The salon owner was left surprised, unsure of what to do next. But sometimes, even in the middle of heartbreak, the right people show up.
One of the stylists happened to have a client connected to friends of Lone Star Bulldog Club Rescue. A call was made. And that was all it took.
Brigitte Barkdot is safe.
She’s now part of rescue, where her story won’t end like this. Where she’ll be given the patience, care and love she deserves. Where someone will show her that she was never disposable.
We’ll never understand how anyone could walk away from her, but we do know this: her next chapter will be her best.

Dallas/Fort Worth friends: we need you.
Fostering is one of the most impactful ways to save a life, and it’s something your whole family can be part of. Opening your home to a dog in need not only gives them a second chance, it also gives your children a firsthand lesson in compassion, responsibility and the power of helping others.
Every foster home creates space for us to rescue another dog. It’s that simple: more foster families = more lives saved.
If you’ve ever thought about making a difference in your community, this is it. Join us and be the reason a dog gets the fresh start they deserve. Message us to learn more.
